Chapter 167 He Had No Feelings for Her
Later in the evening, Peiying and Zhenting also arrived at the banquet. Another exchange of greetings. The atmosphere was
getting better and better.
Peiying looked at the beautiful Chase and couldn’t help but praise, “Chase is really beautiful tonight. I noticed you the moment I
came in.” “Auntie, you flatter me. You look very good tonight.” Chase pretended to be shy and lowered her head, but she couldn’t
help but look at Lucas beside her with expectation in her eyes. Unfortunately, the man never gave her a look.
Was she not beautiful enough tonight?
Why was this man not willing to look her in the eye
At this moment, Chase felt an indescribable sense of defeat in his heart.
Gwen also noticed that her daughter’s mood had changed, and she knew why her daughter was worried.
She patted the back of her daughter’s hand without leaving a trace and comforted her silently.
It was also at this time that she suddenly changed the topic and smiled at Lucas, “Speaking of which, there is something I have
to apologize to Lucas on behalf of our Chase.” Hearing this, Lucas frowned. Greens family was also stunned, as if they did not
expect Gwen to suddenly say this. However, before they could say anything, Gwen continued to speak to Lucas, “I know that
Chase did something silly and made you unhappy. Auntie Smith hopes that you don’t forget. This girl has been spoiled by me
and her father since she was a child. If you are unhappy, just scold her.”. “Your Auntie Smith is right. This child has been spoiled
by us. She only cares about herself when doing things. Please forgive her. She will never do such a thing again.” James also
spoke up from the side. He knew that the purpose of tonight’s banquet was to ease the relationship between his daughter and
Lucas. In the face of such a serious apology from the two elders, Lucas could not help but frown. As for Peiying, seeing that her
son did not speak for a long time, she could not help but speak up for him.
Although what Chase Smith did was wrong, in the end, she was the future daughter-in-law that she liked. She could not let the
two be so distant. “Lucas, why aren’t you saying anything? It’s been so long, and you still care about that matter?”
When these words came out, Chase Smith became nervous and stared at Lucas.
Lucas naturally noticed her gaze, but he didn’t intend to pay attention to it. He said indifferently, “I won’t take that matter to heart.
It’s not a big deal.” Hearing this, not only did Chase Smith relax, but Smith family’s parents also breathed a sigh of relief.
Because there were other guests to greet, the few of them chatted for a while and then separated.
Chase Smith followed her parents to greet the people she was familiar with. Lucas also quickly separated from his parents. To be
precise, Zhenting felt that his son’s existence had stolen the attention of his wife, so he took her to the garden. As for greeting
the guests, he believed that Lucas could do it well. In fact, it was indeed the case. Lucas was rather good at this kind of job.
However, he was impatient with such social activities and quickly found a corner with fewer people. He didn’t want to talk to
people anymore. Gradually, those company bosses were tactful enough not to disturb him. On the other side, after Chase Smith
accompanied her parents to socialize, she could not wait to leave.
“Dad, Mom, I am going to look for Lucas. If you have something to do, send someone to find me.” After she finished speaking,
she picked up the corner of her skirt and ran off. Looking at her leaving in a hurry, the couple shook their heads. James sighed
and said, “Daughters really can’t be kept when they grow up.” Although Gwen didn’t say anything, she agreed with these words.
Chase Smith didn’t know this. She walked to the place near Lucas and stopped. She adjusted her appearance and made sure
there was no problem. Then she walked over gracefully with a glass of wine.
“Lucas.”
“Miss Smith, what’s the matter?”
Lucas frowned and said indifferently. Chase Smith didn’t care. She made a toast gesture and said gracefully, “It’s nothing. I just
want to apologize for what I did before. I shouldn’t have done that. I’m really sorry.” After she finished speaking, she raised her
head and drank all the wine in the cup. Then, she smiled sweetly at Lucas. Unfortunately, Lucas’ expression was still indifferent,
and there were no ripples in his eyes. “I can’t drink. As for the past, it’s all in the past.” Although he said this, he still had no
feelings for Chase Smith in his heart.
It was just that the others didn’t know.
Everyone looked at the two of them standing together. The atmosphere was very harmonious. They were talking and laughing,
and they began to guess.. “Looking at the interaction between the two, is the rumored marriage alliance true?” “I’m not too sure,
but it should be true. Otherwise, with Mr. Greens’ temper, how could he let Miss Smith family get close?”
“It makes sense. It seems that marriage is coming. I just don’t know when Smith family and Greens family will officially announce
it.” “But if the two families are really connected by marriage, Y City’s sky will change.”
